Biocontrol Programme
Improving the capability of biocontrol solutions and their use across Southeast Asia.
Project Description
This project aims to develop capacity and capability in the region to develop and use biocontrol for FAW control and IPM. There are five components:
​
-
Information and knowledge-sharing
-
Regulation and the enabling environment
-
Research capability​​
-
Pilots, demonstrations, and technology transfer​​
-
Farmer education and training
